Don't tell me the sky is the limit...

...when there are footprints on the moon.

If love is the answer, could you rephrase the question?

Preciso de saber de ti.

Mais do que de ti.

Take me as i am or watch me as i go.

At some point.

You gotta let Go and sit Still and allow contentment to come to you.

Dear brain:

sorry for overloading you with thoughts of him.

Dear Tummy:

sorry for all the butterflies.

Dear Pillow:

sorry for all the tears.

Dear heart:

sorry for all the damage.

Vive a verdade e fazes a diferença.

É preciso ver o que não foi visto...

...ver outra vez o que se viu já, ver na primavera o que se vira no verão, ver de dia o que se viu de noite... É preciso voltar aos passos que foram dados, para repetir e para traçar caminhos novos ao lado deles. É preciso recomeçar a viagem. Sempre."

[José Saramago]

Sei que aquilo que escrevo foi escrito antes....

'...como tudo o que fazemos já foi feito há muito tempo, antes de nós. Tudo é assim, na vida.'

[José Saramago]

E se este Universo não conspirar a meu favor...

...mudo de Universo.

Quero que seja o futuro...

E não o passado, a orientar a minha vida.

Morrer é só não ser visto.

A morte não é perder mas sim ganhar algo que nos transcende.

Se podes olhar. ve.

.se podes ver. repara.

To do.

You must keep your feet grounded so firmly on the earth that it's like you have four legs, instead of two. That way, you can stay in the world. But you must stop looking at the world through your head. You must look through your heart, instead.

It's still two human beings trying to get along, so it's going to be complicated.

And love is always complicated. But humans must try to love each other, darling. We must get our hearts broken sometimes. This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.

Sobre o saber estar sozinho.

'When I get lonely these days, I think: So BE lonely. Learn your way around loneliness. Make a map of it. Sit with it, for once in your life. Welcome to the human experience. But never again use another person's body or emotions as a scratching... postfor your own unfulfilled yearnings.'

E quando lhe perguntaram porque está tão doce...

'...responde simplesmente com um sorriso: "sou como a fruta: amadureci'. *

Penso:

'talvez o céu seja um mar grande de água doce e talvez a gente não ande debaixo do céu mas sim em cima dele; talvez a gente veja as coisas ao contrário e a terra seja como um céu e quando a gente morre, quando a gente morre, talvez a gente caia e se afunde no céu.'

This life is what you make it.

"Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."

[Marilyn Monroe]

'i am Good, but not an Angel.

I do Sin, but i am not the Devil. I am just a Small girl in a Big world, trying to find someone to Love' *

[Marilyn Monroe]h

Os americanos não enviaram mulheres à lua por causa da bagagem:

"não cabia. Quem já viajou com mulheres sabe do que falo. Elas não viajam, organizam mudanças."

[José Eduardo Agualusa, A Substância do Amor e outras Crónicas]

I live on the clouds.

Reality is not for me. People say i should come down. That the clouds are not a place for grownups to be. I smile at them. Maybe one day, i say maybe one day i will come down. But i never will. Reality is not for me. I shall stay up here. The view is quite breathtaking ;)

And i know Home is where you want me.

"It is very simple", she thought.

"You get up, you go, you do, you see, you put one foot in front of the other & along the way you do your very best to enjoy it!"
